3.66 ghz stable at 1.24v Default voltage. temps run 58-61c at full load.. may go to 4.2ghz tonight and boost the voltage 1 tick and run stress test tonight..

do you guys suggest that?
 
I was suprised that i was stable at stock voltage at 3.66 ghz ... only thing i worry about is the temps.. but i had the temps at 1.28v before i started bringing it back checking stablity and never went above 65c so i think i will be fine
 
Maybe wait to break the 4GHz mark until you get the watercooling loop? If you really want to, you could do some real low 4GHz clocking, but I wouldn't risk it until the watercooling. Then again, that's me, I value my parts too much, I use them too carefully.

What's your loop gonna be like?
 
do u think my temps right now r alright... and im not sure about my loop yet.. i still need some help selecting parts and stuff like that
 
Nice overclock dude, yah ive heard that xeon clocks better and at a lower voltage than the 920.

I can wait to see your final result. :)
 
according to my multimeter i'm running at 1.3v for 3.8ghz, so your aren't doing too bad, but you should be able to use less voltage for higherclocks
 
ya... its just odd that i see 10c increases at stock voltage with a 1ghz overclock... i wonder how much more i can go on stock voltage
 
well as of right now while i do my normal.. play Modern warfare 2 or play world of warcraft my temps dont break 40c. Only time i get anywhere close to 60c is when im running prime 95 since then im at full load
 
lol so do u think thats good .. what i am gettting? i mean i know 60c is a tad high at full load (which ill never be at) ... but barely hitting 40c at normal usage what ya think?
